Clipse & J.I.D

Clipse and J.I.D are playing Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Thursday, November 12, with Samara Cyn opening. It's a double bill that puts two different generations of hip-hop on the same stage, and they've actually worked together: Clipse appear on the track "Community" from J.I.D's 2025 album, God Does Like Ugly.

Clipse are coming off their Grammy-winning comeback album, Let God Sort Em Out, which Pharrell Williams produced. That record followed a fully sold-out tour in 2025, so they're arriving here with a lot of momentum behind them. J.I.D brings his own recent run to the bill: The Forever Story, his 2022 album, was widely received as a modern classic, and God Does Like Ugly earned a Grammy nomination. Between the two of them, the night covers a wide stretch of the genre's recent years.

Samara Cyn opens the show. She's been cited as one of the fastest-emerging new voices in hip-hop, so she's a good one to catch early in her run. With her on the bill, the night starts with a new voice before moving into the established names.

The show is presented by AEG Presents Rocky Mountains. It's on Thursday, November 12, at Red Rocks.
